Hey folks, Preet here.

It was another busy week for former President Donald Trump.

In a new brief, Trump argues that chaos and Vedlam would be unleashed if the Supreme Court

upholds the Colorado Supreme Court's decision

disqualify him from the presidential election ballot based on section 3 of the 14th

And Trump is defending himself in yet another civil trial bought by writer E. Jean Carroll.

And Carroll is seeking more than $10 million.

Joyce Vance and I discuss all of that and more on the Cafe Insider Podcast.

So now we get to the question of the quality of the representation that Donald Trump is getting or has gotten in the past.

I did a television interview yesterday that has not yet aired

where I got the question, what do you think of Trump's lawyers? And I involuntarily began laughing,

And as the president and even as a former president he should be able to command among the finest

legal practitioners and minds in the country like at the very very very top of their profession and their game.
